[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8424460, member: 6704184"] Just want to pull this quote out from the larger post. Not only this, but in world where it is [I]possible[/I] to do so simply via practice and diligence, institutions like martial traditions, guilds, etc, would force that practice and diligence in the learning of the magical principles and skills that are just as much a part of their tradition as the mundane skills and tools. An apprentice or recruit would be drilled, made to practice, given excercises designed to promote the kind of physical and mental mindset that facilitates the skill, just like soldiers are made to sleep and eat together and are punished together even for individual failings, etc, in order to facilitate a "we succeed or fail together" mindset, and are made to perform physical tasks that don't necessarily directly relate to making war in order to condition their bodies to rigorous effort and activity. It doesn't even require ubiquitous or easy magic. Just magic that can be acquired simply by practice and effort. [/QUOTE]
